OPERATION CONTROL DEVICE AND OPERATION CONTROL METHOD

摘要

In an operation control device as a first device communicably connected to at least one second device and in an operation control method, a main controller performs a process of acquiring second device-operation information via a communication unit, a process of acquiring past second device-operation information from a storage unit, a process of selecting past second device-operation information based on similarity between current second device-operation information and the past second device-operation information acquired from the storage unit by an information acquisition unit, and a process of determining operation currently performed by the first device based on past first device-operation information stored in the storage unit while being associated with the selected past second device-operation information.

1. An operation control device as a first device communicably connected to at least one second device, comprising:
an operation determination unit configured to determine first device-operation information indicating operation currently performed by the first device; a communication unit configured to receives second device-operation information indicating operation performed by the second device; a storage unit configured to store information; an information recording unit configured to store the first device-operation information determined by the operation determination unit and the second device-operation information received by the communication unit in the storage unit while associating the first device-operation information and the second device-operation information with each other; and an information acquisition unit configured to acquire the first device-operation information and the second device-operation information stored in the storage unit as past first device-operation information and past second device-operation information, wherein: the operation determination unit performs:
a process of acquiring the second device-operation information received via the communication unit as current second device-operation information;a process of selecting past second device-operation information based on similarity between the current second device-operation information and the past second device-operation information acquired from the storage unit by the information acquisition unit; and a process of determining operation currently performed by the first device based on the past first device-operation information stored in the storage unit while being associated with the selected past second device-operation information.
